Psalms 78:43-51

43They did not remember his miraculous signs in Egypt, his wonders on the plain of Zoan.

44For he turned their rivers into blood, so no one could drink from the streams.

45He sent vast swarms of flies to consume them and hordes of frogs to ruin them.

46He gave their crops to caterpillars; their harvest was consumed by locusts.

47He destroyed their grapevines with hail and shattered their sycamore-figs with sleet.

48He abandoned their cattle to the hail, their livestock to bolts of lightning.

49He loosed on them his fierce anger— all his fury, rage, and hostility. He dispatched against them a band of destroying angels.

50He turned his anger against them; he did not spare the Egyptians’ lives but ravaged them with the plague.

51He killed the oldest son in each Egyptian family, the flower of youth throughout the land of Egypt.
